  • Title: The visual evoked potential in the mouse--origins and response characteristics.
    Author: Ridder WH, Nusinowitz S.
    Journal: Vision Res; 2006 Mar; 46(6-7):902-13. PubMed ID: 16242750.
    Abstract:
    The visual evoked potential (VEP) in the mouse is characterized and compared to responses obtained with the electroretinogram (ERG). The results indicate that: 1, the VEP originates in the visual cortex; 2, the rod and cone pathways contribute separately to the VEP; 3, temporal tuning functions for rod and cone ERGs are low pass and band pass, respectively; VEP tuning functions are both band pass; and 4, VEP acuity is 0.62+/-0.156 cycles/degree. The differences in the spatial and temporal tuning functions obtained from the retina and visual cortex provides a tool to investigate signal processing through the visual system.
